  • Oversee constructability reviews, logistics planning, and phasing strategies.

Procurement Coordination

  • Collaborate with the Procurement Manager to ensure bid packaging, subcontractor engagement, and early buyout strategies are aligned with project requirements.
  • Participate in subcontractor outreach, prequalification, and contract strategy decisions.

 

Client & Stakeholder Engagement

  • Act as the primary client contact for complex pursuits during the preconstruction phase.
  • Lead client presentations, design meetings, and value engineering sessions.
  • Partner with business development and operations to support pursuit strategies and smooth project handoff.
